Your home may not be on Main Street,
but if you want to protect it, your insurance agent should be.
As your local Professional Insurance Agents, we really are “Local Agents Serving Main Street America.”SM
The well-being of our customers—our neighbors—is important to us. We know that many people don’t fully understand what their homeowners insurance policy actually covers. Unfortunately, it’s often less than they think. When disaster strikes, seemingly minor exclusions can be monumental roadblocks between a policyholder and a claims payment. Together, we can help you understand what your homeowners insurance policy actually covers—or doesn’t. We work hard to get to know you so we can better answer your questions and provide coverage options for your home. Because we represent a number of quality insurance companies, we can help you choose from a number of policies to better fit your unique needs. Whether you need insurance for your home or simply want to review your coverage options, give us a call or stop by our office so we can get to know you. Your biggest asset deserves the attention of your local “Main Street” insurance agents.

It’s a very exciting time to work in the real estate profession and an exciting time for real estate in the Adirondacks! We couldn’t be more proud to be working with some of the best and brightest leaders this industry has seen, such as: Tom Kunz, former CEO of Century 21, Stuart Siegel, former CEO of Sotheby’s International, Jim Ramsay, former SVP of sales and operations for both Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate and Century 21 and Jacob Stepan who was formerly a senior executive at Cendant Corp. This leadership dream team has been instrumental in Engel & Völkers North American growth at the same time that international interest has also grown in North American markets including the Adirondack region. Engel & Völkers expansion efforts continue to gain momentum across our region. In May of 2014 our North American Headquarters relocated to 430 Park Avenue in Midtown Manhattan and with this move came the launch of a full service real estate brokerage in the same location, which has recently gained recognition as the #4 boutique real estate firm in New York City. These ties have further cemented our reach into the Tri-State area where many of our busy clients reside. With the recent addition of the Engel & Völkers Private Aviation Division our clients can now charter or purchase aircraft through our network to visit our area in record speed!
